Michael

Here we go, the doctors say Calum is awake an I am on my way to see him. For the first time in too long I can hear his voice, see his eyes, a feel the warmth in his touch.

"Michael." Luke walks out of the room with a small smile and a defeated look on his face.

"Is he okay?" I ask and he nods, wrapping on his arms around my shoulders and turning me opposite of his room.

"Yeah, he's fine.....he's just different, Mikey." he says with a sad sigh. "He's not the Calum we know. He's just- not the same."

"He still remembers us though, right?" I ask, my heart thumping in my chest as I wait for his answer.

"Yes of course."

I take a deep breath before walking into his room. When I finally do, he's watching tv. His eyes turn to look at me and I smile, but he doesn't smile back. I go over and sit in the chair closest to his bed and take his hand, but he flinches away.

"Cal?" I squeak, my throat becoming raw from the oncoming tears.

"Michael, I just need time." he mumbles, staring at me with hard eyes.

"What are you saying? You don't want me around?" I ask feeling tears in my eyes but I refuse to look away.

"Just a break, Mikey." He says, his tone void of any emotion.

"Fine. I-If that's what you want." I mumble and stand up, furiously wiping my eyes dry as I hastily exit the room. I ignore the others calling me and just leave.

Calum

I feel bad. Really bad, but I can't have him always wanting to be around me when the screaming is all I can hear. The screaming has consumed me, I can't focus. I don't know what to do anymore.
